North Cardiff Medical Centre is a training Practice. Registrars are medically qualified and many have a great deal of hospital experience. Their training in the Practice is centred on the role of the General Practitioner. They are available for consultations in exactly the same way as the other doctors in the practice. On occasions patients may be asked for their permission to video record their consultation. Video recording will only be undertaken with patients' consent and the camera will be switched off on request.
